A priest was preaching a sermon in the church. Hundreds of people formed the congregation in which there were some diseased, poor and crippled persons. The priest told the people that God doesn’t make any difference between the rich and the poor, the diseased and the healthy, the able bodied and the crippled. His grace pours on all alike, whatever their external conditions

In the course of the sermon, the priest’s eye lighted upon a broken candle lying on the floor. He got down from the pulpit, took the candle, and holding it before the congregation, lit it up with a match and it gave light. The candle though crushed and crumpled burnt bright by the touch of the flame. The match did not deny its fire to the candle because it was broken, and the candle gave full light inspire of its broken condition. This example struck Ramdas as unique. Really, God is all compassion and mercy. He pours his grace on any person who opens his heart to receive it.
